OK. So my nexus config (Which works) is

interface port-channel202
  description MAN: Viprion-1 20Gb channel
  switchport
  switchport mode trunk
  switchport trunk native vlan 1000
  switchport trunk allowed vlan 105,108,1024-1255,2005-2006,2015-2016
  switchport trunk allowed vlan add 4080,4086-4087
  vpc 202

And then on the interfaces

interface Ethernet4/18
  description MAN: Viprion-1 10Gb int 1.1
  switchport
  switchport mode trunk
  switchport trunk native vlan 1000
  switchport trunk allowed vlan 105,108,1024-1255,2005-2006,2015-2016
  switchport trunk allowed vlan add 4080,4086-4087
  channel-group 202 mode active
  no shutdown

The other interface is of course connected to Nexus 2... That config is identical.

Then the Viprion is configured with a single 'trunk' (F5 Port-Channel).

When you do a 'sh vpc ' is it Status==Up and Consistency==Success?
